Yes, this is missing. Any volunteer to fulfill this task will be 
welcomed :) (anyway, you also might fill a JIRA issue requesting for 
this tutorial, so we will have it somwhere in our roadmap)

Nope.

We are not using Java 1.6 currently. And using Derby as a backend might 
be a limitation.

Nope... Volunteers ?

You can check out the sources :

We might create a tar ball with soucres soon. Lack of time ...
